H.R. 1897 is moving fast in the House and could hit the floor for a full vote as soon as tomorrow. This bill would gut the Endangered Species Act forcing economic impact considerations into listing decisions, limiting your ability to challenge bad science in court,

This is very good

The scammers profiting off Trump's immigration crackdown Fake judges. Fake lawyers. Real deportations.

In one New York case, scammers organized fake court hearings via video conference. Screenshots from those calls show two suspects dressed as an attorney and another as a Border Patrol agent.

In all, prosecutors say, they stole more than $100,000 from at least 150 victims.

Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations:

Alphabet: 8.01%
AT&T: 4.6%
Meta: 3.57%
General Motors: 3.09%
Amazon: 1.37%
Exxon Mobil: 1.31%
Disney: -1.57%
CVS Health: -3.88%

Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5%

This is what a rigged system looks like.

Screenshot of a tweet by Headquarters (@HQNewsNow) reporting that the Trump administration ended an $11 million Catholic Charities contract providing care and shelter for unaccompanied migrant children, noting the cancellation came after Pope Leo criticized Trump's war in Iran. The post includes a split image of Trump seated beneath an American flag in dramatic lighting, and Pope Leo XIV in white papal vestments.

That light fixture placement behind him is so apt.

Cherokee chief won’t be allowed to speak on Oklahoma House floor again, chamber leader says • Oklahoma Voice The head of the Cherokee Nation will not be invited back to speak on the House floor after he took a “political position” defending Medicaid expansion, the House speaker said Thursday.

Bonkers: The USA belongs to the First Nations & yet the Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation has been banned from the Oklahoma House floor! The sheer colonialism of such arrogance is breathtaking. Perhaps Oklahoma could make America great again, by listening to its original people?

PG&E. Haliburton. Amazon. Tesla. Disney. CVS Health. United Airlines. PayPal and fucking Disney. Billions in profits. $0.00 in federal corporate income taxes. That money should be funding schools, hospitals, healthcare, and public services.

This is why people are fucking angry, pissed and worse.

We Forget About ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ at Our Peril The abuses are piling up, and Democrats and activists are desperate to get the word out.

"A large number of Cubans are being held at the Everglades facility. 'Predominantly, the population are Cubans whose families voted for or supported Trump, and they’re pissed,' immigration activist Thomas Kennedy said."
